    Why is there two threads about the same topic?

    One Pro-Israel?

    One Pro-Hamas¿

    Now it's been confirmed Israeli received warnings from the egyptians about a possible attack in Gaza but they rejected it. Any word from MAGAts? @tallanvor @Salvy who claimed somehow the money usa hadn't even given to Iran Is responsible but not the incompetent government.

    You people are so brainwashed

    I can't think of a worse crime against our country than trying to steal an election and encouraging an attack on the capital.

    Innocent people don't just end up with 91 felony inditements. Where there's that much smoke... there's fire.

    But did you also know that Hamas — which is an Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” — would probably not exist today were it not for the Jewish state? That the Israelis helped turn a bunch of fringe Palestinian Islamists in the late 1970s into one of the world’s most notorious militant groups? That Hamas is blowback?

    This isn’t a conspiracy theory. Listen to former Israeli officials such as Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, who was the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s. Segev later told a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who himself referred to Hamas as “a creature of Israel.”)

    “The Israeli government gave me a budget,” the retired brigadier general confessed, “and the military government gives to the mosques.”

    Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel’s creation,” Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades, told the Wall Street Journal in 2009

    Unless everybody doesn’t know how to read or the English language changed how does that support hammas?

    There are millions of people there that are not hammas. It’s like calling all Mexicans cartel members. The dumbing down of society has reached a new level and I’d argue that spreading a false narrative when it’s clear as day based on what you’re reading/saying is abhorrent and malicious

    You really should consider removing the flag from your icon as you might actually be making some confused moderates or liberals anit-semitic curious.

    I honestly have no idea what the bottom cartoon is or whether to give that guy posting any validity but yes anybody supporting hammas is scum. The internet and these Twitter accounts have gotten into this weird realm of unverifiability

    supporting a Palestinian flag and praying for civilians caught up in this mess should be normal is my point

    more context for you.

    also, you might want to follow BLMChicago to get the full picture of what you are either defending, or attempting to minimize.

    If they focused more on terrorism and less on parents at school board meetings they might be able to do a better job with less people.
